This infographic is used as a general indicative example only.

Actual factory and process configurations could vary, but our industry experts know them all. Above overview shows the factory lay-out with the rotary cutter. The rotary moulder and depositor are published separately. Please use the drop-down menu for more details.

Dough Mixer

This is where it all starts! Wet dough applications give the first shape to bakery products.

Depositor

Different dough ingredients are extruded from nozzles directly onto the belt, forming the cookies. Here, hygiene and resistance to oil and grease are very important.

Main challenges

The dough transfer can be problematic

Belts can leave imprints on the dough

Covers must be cleaned to rigorous standards

Solutions

Belts with high flexibility for better transfer

A smooth and glossy belt surface to avoid any imprints

Scraper-friendly belt material to make cleaning easier

Infeeder and Take-off Oven Belt

Releasing the thin dough as the products head into the oven and then taking the biscuits off the steel belt after the baking process are both very delicate steps in the manufacturing process. High temperatures, high-speeds and very small transfer points for reliable product positioning are all elements that require high-quality, high-performance belts.

Main challenges

The extreme operational conditions can lead to short belt lifetimes

Product release from the Infeeder can be problematic

Improper product positioning after transfer from Infeeder can lead to product waste

Stacker Belt

A very delicate stage in the production process, stacking is carried out by a set of conveyors (one of which runs at a lower speed than the other) gently overlapping and piling up the cookies along the metal rails for the horizontal flow-wrap packing equipment.

Main challenges

Product damage and a consequent accumulation of crumbs can be caused by belt friction

Packaging

To ensure that the finished product ends up in just the right position for the flow-pack equipment, precise belt grip is essential. Accumulating or pulling fragile products requires either perforated high-grip belts or matt-finish belts to ensure low friction.

Main challenges

Belt grip must be consistent and reliable

Belt tolerances for packaging applications are very tight

Belts for this application often have short lifetimes

Solutions

Ammeraal Beltech One-Stop Belt Shop for just the right belt

A wide variety of profiled belts and cover materials / finishes for precise performance and grip

Belts made from flexible and durable materials for long-lasting
